I also had to keep reminding myself that 1995's Batman Forever (and even the later - and woeful - Batman & Robin) are not considered part of the same universe, despite both still featuring Michael Gough as Alfred Pennyworth, Bruce Wayne's faithful butler who is in on the secret.
In particular, 95's Batman Forever (which was Val; Kilmer's sole outing on the cape) features Jim Carrey as The Riddler, one of the two main villains of that film.
And also the main villain of this (albeit not Jim Carrey's manic version!).
This also brings back the reporter Alexander Knox - who has a larger role here than in the previous novel - and has a pre-Catwoman Selina Kyle having a larger(ish) role in the proceedings, alongside Max Schreck and his son Chip.
I *think* that may be why I didn't gel as much with this entry as the previous - namely, that I couldn;t get Jim Carrey's version of The Riddler out of my head the whole time I was reading this, despite knowing he's a very different take on the character than here.
That's not to say that this is a bad read, per se, - it's not, by any stretch of the imagination - just that I feel it may be better read 'cold', that is, without any pre-existing baggage. A hard sell in this day and age, I know!
